Designed by Judel/Vrolijk and built by Baltic Yachts (FIN) from 1984–2001, the Baltic 35 is a robust fractional sloop with 45 hulls produced. Its design emphasizes stability and comfort, reflected in a displacement of 9877.0 lb and a comfort ratio of 19.34.
- Best for:
- This boat suits coastal cruisers and those seeking a comfortable, stable passage maker, as evidenced by the high frequency of dodger and cockpit canvas upgrades for weather protection.
- Bluewater capability:
- With a capsize ratio of 2.15 and a D/L ratio of 187.11, the Baltic 35 demonstrates strong offshore suitability, supported by owner reports of solar panel and watermaker installations for extended autonomy.
- Comparables:
- Comparable to other 1980s European cruisers like the Hallberg-Rassy 35 or Nauticat 35, the Baltic 35 shares similar fractional sloop rigs and heavy displacement characteristics aimed at safe offshore handling.
